Patented Oct. 24, 1944 DOMESTIC APPLIANCE Kendall Clark, Oakwood, Ohio, assignmto General Motors Corporation, poration of Delaware Dayton, Ohio, a cor- Application February 24, 1941, Serial No. 380,255 6 Claims. (01. 74-573) This invention relates to domestic appliances and more particularly to washing machines.
An object of this invention is to provide a washing machine having a centrifugal basket for wringing the clothes, which basket is counterbalanced in an improved manner against violent displacement due to unequal distribution of clothes. 7
Further objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, wherein a preferred form of the present invention is clearly shown. In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a diagrammaticrepresentation'of a washing machine embodying features of my invention;
Fig. 2 is a horizontal cross-section, on a re-' duced scale, indicating, diametrically the counterbalancing action of the rings;
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2; but showing the rings during rotation when there is no unbalanced load; and
Fig. 4 is an enlarged vertical cross-sectional view of the central portion of the machine.
My improved washing machine may include a relatively stationary outer cabinet or tank it having an upper tank space l2 with a bottom wall ll to separate the cabinet into an upper tank l2 and a lower machinery compartment l3. The wall ll may be provided with an opening M. A flexible collar, made of rubber or the like it, surrounds the opening M and is supported, at its lower end, by the wall H The upper end of the collar i5 is provided with a disc it upon which the rotatable basket ll is rotatably supported through the medium of transmission casing 88 and thrust ball bearing l8a. The disc it also supports the power and transmissioncasing i8, depending therefrom, by means of screws lBb. The casing l8 contains a motor l9, 2. transmission 20 and a pump 2| all drivingly connected. The motor I9, through the transmission 20 drives an outer rotatable shaft 2la, which is keyed to the basket'to rotate the same. The motor l9, through the'transmission 20, also vertically reciprocates the reciprocable shaft 22 which is connected at its upper end to a cone-shaped agitator 23 provided with a flexible outer rim 24. The motor It also is connected to the pump 2|. The pump 2| is of such a construction that it may be rotated in either direction to withdraw liquid through the flexible hose 25 from the tank l2 and discharge the same through a hose 26 which may be placed in any conveniently located drain.
The foregoing elements may be substantially the same as corresponding elements disclosed in my copending application S. N. 358,871, filed September 28, 1940, for Domestic appliance, to
which reference is made, if necessary, for a more detailed description of these parts.
In more detail, the motor I! is a reversible motor, and the transmission 20 is such, that when the motor rotates in one direction, the tub I1 is rotated through the medium of shaft 2 la. When the motor is rotated in the opposite direction, the agitator 23 is vertically reciprocated through the medium of shaft 22. Any transmission mechanism may be used for this purpose capable of rotating and reciprocating the shafts 2m and 22 respectively. The agitator 23 may be given a series of short quick reciprocations, which cause the flexible rim 24 to impart toroidal circulation to the liquid and clothes in the basket H. The basket ll comprises an outer cup 30 and an inner cup iii. The inner cup M is perforated in such a manner that, when the tub begins to rotate, a vortex is formed in the liquid, and water begins to discharge through the lower openings 32 into the outer cup 30 and from thence over the rim 33 of the outer cup 38. This creates a skimming action adjacent to the bottom of the vortex, and skims any scum which was floating on the liquid and discharges the same through the openings 32 before the scum has a chance to settle on the clothes, which by now have distributed themselves along the equatorial region 3% of the basket.
The clothes are substantially well distributed along this equatorial zone by the agitator action followed by the centrifugal action; but naturally some inequalities are bound to occur, and these inequalities tend to displace the basket from an even balance. I have provided counterbalancing means, somewhat different from the counterbalancing means disclosed in my said copending application.
The counterbalancing means disclosed in this application comprises two or more counterbalancing rings 35 and 36, which are resiliently mounted by rubber rings 31 and 38 upon coneshaped supports 39 and 40 carried by the basket IT. The basket l1 and transmission casing and contents l8 have a resonant frequency of vibration on the collar l5 and when the basket ll is rotating at a frequency numerically equal to this resonant frequency, the basket is rotating at critical speed, as is well known in this art. The rings 35 and 36 are tuned on their rubber supports 31 and 38 to this resonant frequency or, in other words, the rings 35 and 36 and supports 31 and 38 are constructed to vibrate at a frequency equal to the resonant frequency or critical speed described in the preceding sentence, and comprise a tuned vibration absorber for the washing machine. Therefore the rings 35 and 36 and supports 31 and 38 have a frequency of vibration equal to the critical speed of the basket ll. Above the resonant speed, critical speed or frequency, the rings 35 and 36 flex their rubber supports and assume a combined position with their mutual center of gravity diametrically opposite from the unbalanced load II and their mutual center of gravity 35a at a correct radius to counterbalance the unbalanced load in the basket H. The maximum displacement of these rings 35 and 36 may be limited by the cones 39 and 40. The weight of the rings 35 and 36 is so chosen that their combined moment, at this maximum displacement, substantially equals the expected maximum moment of the unbalanced load in the basket l1.
As mentioned above, the mechanism I8, and the tub or cup assembly, 30 and 3!, are mounted on the rubber collar l5. During the acceleration of the tub assembly with an unbalanced load, the motion of these parts on the rubber collar acting as a spring sets up an-undesirable resonant vibration when the speed of rotation reaches critical speed and is equal to the resonant or natural" frequency of this vibrating system. As the speed increases above critical speed, the vibration decreases and eventually becomes of minor importance near the top spinning speed of the tubs. The two flywheel members 35 and 36, are mounted on the rubber springs 31 and 38 respectively, and by properly proportioning the mass of the flywheels and the size and resiliency of the springs, the flywheels can be made to perform as tuned vibration absorbers for the resonant or natural frequency of the main vibrating system comprising the tubs and mechanism. when acting as a tuned vibration absorbing system flywheels 35 and 36 will materially reduce the amplitude of the resonant vibrations of the main system comprising the tubs and the mechanism.
The term resonant or "natural frequency means the frequency of vibration that would occur if the system were pulled to one side and released. The vibration absorbers 35 and 36 should have a natural frequency of vibration on their springs approximately equal to the natural frequency of the main vibrating system. The size of the weights 35 and 3G and the size of the springs 31 and 38 should be calibrated to each other so that the resulting natural frequency equals that of the main vibrating system.
Below critical speed, the resilient supports 31 and 38 tend to prevent the rings 35 and 36 from flying out an undesirable distance, and thus prevent the rings from augmenting the below critical speed unbalance, thus overcoming an objectionable feature of the well known counterbalancing loose rings.
With no unbalanced load in the basket the rings assume a position such that their mutual center of gravity coincides with the axis of spin, and thereby impart no unbalance to the machine. This position is shown in Fig. 3 where it will be seen that the rings are displaced radially and opposite from each other, so that their mutual center of gravity coincides with the axis of spin.
The lower end of the transmission casing l8 may be provided with a rubber snubber 50 connected to the bottom of the transmission casing, and frictionally riding on or being connected to the bottom of the cabinet ID as described in my copending application. This snubber limits the amplitude of oscillations.
While the form of embodiment of the invention as herein disclosed, constitutes a preferred form, it is to be understood that other forms might be adopted, all coming within the scope of the claims.
